depends on the tire.. 45 psi is normal for some tires.. gotta check the sidewall and see the specs

i usually set mine at max pressure when the tires are hot. when cold, like 15% below max.

my pirelli`s say 51psi., i have em at 40

the correct tire pressure should be written on the sidewall somewhere.

my sidewalls say 50 psi. my tire size is 225/45/16, so it may be different. i keep mine at 40 psi though. but i suggest going out reading your sidewall and fill tires accordingly. usually keep it a few psi under what it says on the sidewall.

all tire PSI`s are different so your stock PSI wont be the same. why dont you just check the sidewall to be sure?

nope, PSI`s wouldnt be the same. different tire compunds, different layer construction, and other variables means a different PSI
